At Broadway Bares: License to Strip, secrets will be spilled, disguises discarded and inhibitions detonated in a tantalizing, top-secret turn on the beloved spectacle. From coquettishly covert encounters to flirty, full-throttle reveals, this espionage-filled extravaganza turns every double entendre into a double agent. Fueled by unapologetic queer joy and larger-than-life glamour, Broadway’s boldest performers prove that when the mission is this thrilling, nothing stays hidden for long.

Joining director Kellen Stancil as associate director is veteran Broadway Bares performer Paula DeLuise, with Savannah Joy Cobb serving as assistant director. Mitchell and Nick Kenkel, a longtime Broadway Bares director and performer, are executive producers. 

The choreographers fueling this pulse-pounding operation, alongside Stancil, DeLuise and Cobb, are John Alix, Mike Baerga, Jessica Castro, Armando Farfan Jr., Billy Griffin, Miles Keeney, Nick Kenkel, Tanner Lane, Reed Luplau, Sarah Meahl, Jenny Oehlwein, Julius Anthony Rubio and Shani Talmor.

The book for Broadway Bares: License to Strip is written by Hunter Bell, Steven Cutts and Troy Britton Johnson. The opening number features music, music direction and vocal arrangements by Lynne Shankel and lyrics by Amanda Green, with orchestrations and music production by August Eriksmoen and Shankel.

Broadway Bares was created in 1992 by Mitchell during his time as a Broadway dancer. Looking for a way to raise awareness and money for those living with HIV/AIDS, Mitchell and six of his friends danced atop a New York City bar and raised $8,000 in Broadway Bares’ first iteration. 

Last year’s standing-room-only edition took the audience on a larger-than-life, over-the-rainbow romp down the yellow brick road in the sexy, Oz-inspired Broadway Bares: Come Out, Come Out, which raised $2.44 million. The evening brought the event’s lifetime total to $31.1 million raised for Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS.

Broadway Bares receives generous support from presenting sponsor M∙A∙C Viva Glam and lead corporate sponsors United Airlines, the official airline of Broadway Cares, and ViiV Healthcare.
